Cleaning the air intake grille P0639 Also clean the outside, removing all fluff. Clean the rubber seal round the condenser cabinet and in the inner part of the small door with a damp cloth. Do not use pointed objects or utensils to clean the spaces between the plates, as this could damage the condenser and make it permeable. Do not use this appliance if the condenser has not been fitted. Using a vacuum cleaner remove the fluff from the air intake grille at the back of the appliance. P1162 Cleaning the drum When your laundry does not reach the desired degree of dryness, in other words, when it turns out either too dry or too damp, we advise you to clean the inside of the drum with a cloth soaked with vinegar. This will eliminate the slight patina that has formed in the drum (due to residues of detergent and softeners used in the washing, and to the lime contained in the water), which prevents the probes from detecting the correct degree of dryness. Emptying the water reservoir Water extracted from the laundry condenses inside the machine and is collected in a reservoir. The reservoir must be emptied after each drying cycle to ensure efficient operation when the machine is next used. [. . . ] Once in its permanent operating position, check that the dryer is absolutely level with the aid of a spirit level. Do not restrict the floor clearance through deeppile carpets, strips of wood or similar. This might cause heat build-up which would interfere with the operation of the appliance.
